While the old curmudgeon aviator is still alive and generating headlines why can we not brighten up his life?
When you read this quote from Barry Tempest (ex CAA ) it puts his adventures in to context.
I wish Maurice well in his efforts to recover both himself and his beloved Cub. If and when he gets home to the UK; I do hope he revisits Leicester to give a repeat performance of that unforgettable and impromptu talk he gave in the clubhouse one lunchtime. I had recently retired from the CAA and was reduced to tears.....of mirth.
Come back Maurice, all is forgiven............ well nearly all.
Terry Holloway has flagged up the prospect that Kirk warrants an award from the
Air League for his adventures.
Can we propose him for pushing back the boundaries of basic aviation in the 21st century?
Or just being an eccentric old pilot?
